40 Eridani A

STAR · Vulcan's official sun

TYPE orange dwarfCLAIM TO FAME Star Trek canon

A calm orange star, slightly smaller and cooler than the Sun, and officially the sun of the planet Vulcan in Star Trek. Beyond the fiction it is a genuinely pleasant star for hypothetical life: stable, long lived and quiet. If Vulcans chose it, they chose well. Live long and prosper.
